Pacers' swingman Mike Dunleavy has increased his practice participation up to 20 minutes, but he is also battling a virus.

He is suffering from the same virus that cost teammates Danny Granger, Marquis Daniels, and Troy Murphy time last week.

"We hope it doesn't set him back," Pacers' Coach Jim O'Brien said.

Dunleavy, who is out with bone spurs in his right knee, is continuing to make progress toward his season debut.

"What we did is we played five on five in the halfcourt, transitioned one time and then stopped," O'Brien said. "Not because I was told to do that. It's what I wanted to do."
